Split (Aspalathos, named after a plant) – city on a peninsula dating back to the roman times. When in the 3rd century the great Gaius Aurelius Valerius Diocletianus, who was born in Salona near Split, decided to retire, he built an unique dual-function home: a mixture of a roman palace & roman military camp from late antiquity, the present day grand Diocletian palace. He wished to spend the final years of his life enjoying in the mediterranean climate, homemade food and to indulge in the thermal springs of sulfuric spa which are still in use today. Walking Tour Split with a professional licensed city guide, with a duration of 120 – 150 minutes.
